Pseudophilautus mooreorum
—
Moore’s Shrub Frog
This is the second species of green shrub frog we saw in Knuckles Forest Reserve. These are smaller than Pseudophilautus stuarti, with blue rings around the eyes and white rather than yellow flanks. Don't tell the P. stuarti, but I think these frogs are prettier.
